  Speaker 1: Welcome to Check with Chip, brought to you by Operation

  Speaker 1: Blue Dot Red, turning the Blue Dot Red one podcast
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: at a time. Part of Blue Dot Orthodoxy is that
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: President Trump is an Adolf Hitler wannabe. The U.S. Education
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Department did not do the president a favor by recently
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: publishing a promo video using the Winston Churchill quotation, you
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: can't reason with a tiger when your head is in
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: its mouth. Then the video portrays Trump as a tiger
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: getting things done. The tiger to which Churchill referred was Hitler.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: He was saying, we can't expect to negotiate with this
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: tiger who figuratively is preparing to bite off our national head.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Even without that clumsy own goal, the narrative about Trump
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: and Hitler and fascism persists. When Trump rolled out Make
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: America Great Again in 2016, critics said, Great was code
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: for white. That fell apart when minorities did better in
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: the Trump economy than they did in the Obama economy.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: In 2020, and especially 2024, Trump received record support for
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: a Republican candidate from minority voters. For the 2024 campaign,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: critics changed their narrative to great is code for Nazi
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: or fascist. They noted that Adolf Hitler's main rallying cry
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: was to make Germany great again. Anti-Trump media compared video
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: of Trump rallies to video of Nazi rallies, seemingly unaware
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: that organizations of all types, including the Democratic Party, hold
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: big rallies enthusiastically promoting their leaders and agendas. Hitler made
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Germany great by internally and externally stomping on everyone and
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: everything opposed to him, and fueled it with rabid anti-Semitism.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Trump made America great in a variety of ways, and
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: there was no beating or jailing of opponents. There were
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: no death camps for mass murder of innocent people. It's
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: outrageously insulting to those who suffered under Nazi rule to
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: claim that the same kind of terrorism happened during the
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: first Trump presidency and is happening again. What happened during
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: the first Trump presidency and is happening again is, to
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: borrow from Trump's 2016 campaign, so much winning for America
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: and its citizens. Trump's point always has been that all
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: political leaders in all nations should want to make their
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: nations great in healthy ways that benefit their people. As
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: fellow nations secure in our greatness... We can trade with
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: each other and visit each other and celebrate what makes
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: each other great. America helped rebuild Germany and Japan after
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: World War II so they would not fall prey to
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: the kind of insecurity and desperation that allow extremists to
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: get traction with their dark visions of greatness that prove
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: destructive to their own nations as well as others. South
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Korea is a prosperous and friendly member of the free world.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: North Korea is an impoverished and volatile communist menace. Why?
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Because an Asian variant, Make Korea Great Again, was able
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: to flourish south of the 38th parallel. The best solution
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: to our southern border crisis is for Mexico and the
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: nations of Central America to become great so their citizens
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: are not driven by insecurity and desperation to live elsewhere.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Trump wants a world in which all nations are great, happy, prosperous,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: and friendly with each other. He wants the same for
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: all Americans within America. If you want help explaining to
• 4:05

• 4:11
  Speaker 1: 2024 and why he is not a Hitlerian fascist, fixitnowchip.com.
